Abstract excerpt
The microsomal enzyme glycosylphosphatidylinositol mannosyltransferase I (GPIMT-I) catalyses the transfer of a mannosyl residue from beta-mannosylphosphoryldolichol (beta-Man-P-Dol) to glucosamine-alpha(1,6)(acyl)phosphatidylinositol (GlcN-aPI) to form Man alpha(1,4)GlcN-aPI (ManGlcN-aPI), an intermediate in glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) synthesis. While the transfer of [3H]mannosyl units to endogenous...
